GAYLORD V. BEEBE, OF SWANTON, VERMONT.

sTovE-PIPE..

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 314,783, dated March31, 1885 Application tiled May 31, 1884.

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that 1, GAYLORD W. BEEBE,a citizen of the-'United States,residing` at Swanton, in the county of Franklin and State of Vermont,have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Stove-Pipes; and Ido declare the following to be a full, clear,'and exact description ofthe invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which itappertains to make and use the same, reference being had to theaccompanying drawings, and to letters or figures of reference markedthereon, which form a part of this specification.

Figurel of the drawings is a side view of a st0ve-pipe, showing myimprovement. Fig. 2 is a transverse section. Fig. 3 is a similar view,and Figs. 4 and 5 are detail sectional views of the same.

rIhis invention has relation to stove-pipes; and it consists in theconstruction and novel arrangement of devices, as hereinafter setforth,and pointed out in the claims appended.

The object of this invention is to provide a secure stove-pipe withchimney-connections having simple fastenings adapted to be easilyoperated,and serving to connect the j oints from the stove to thechimney,and also to the thin ble or pipein the chimney.

In the accompanying drawings, the letters A A and B B designate thesections of the stove-pipe, the section B having its seat in thechimney-aperture. The section A is designed to be connected to thethimble-flange ofthe stove. The sections A are provided each at one endWith an inward bevel, (indicated at 0,) whereby it is adapted to readilyenter the adjacent end of the next section. A little back ofthe beveledmargin are made, in opposite sides of this end, pert'orations or slots dd, the slots extending in the direction ofthe circular elements of thepipe. Perl'orations e e are made in opposite sides of the other end` ofthe section for the passage of a fastening` rod, F, which is threaded atone end. After the beveled end of the section is entered into theadjacent end of the neXt'section the slots (No model.)

of the inserted end arebrought to register with the perforations of `theouter circumseribing end of the adjacent section, and the joint isconnected by passing the rod F through the perforations and slots andsecuring it by applying a nut, G, upon the threaded end. /Vhen thisconnection is made.the slots allow the connected sections to be turned alittle in either directiomso that properadjustments can be made forelbows. As the section B,which is secured Iin position in the chimney,cannot be turned, the adjacent section, B, is connect` ed thereto in thefollowing manner: The slots hof the section B are formed with centralentrance-passages, k, which open at the beveled margin, as shown. Theother or chimney section, B', is provided with a transverse keyrod, Z,which is headed at each end in its diametric position. Vhen these partsare to be joined, the slotted section is easily entered in the othersection, so that the slot entrances receive the rod. When pushed home,the section B can be turned a little, securing the connection in thechimney.

`Having described this invention, what I claim, and desire to secure byLetters Patent, 1sw

l. A connected stove-pipe consisting of sections having beveled endsslotted back of their beveled margins to permit a rotary movement, andhaving at their opposite ends transverse connecting-rods adapted toengage the slots of the marginally-beveled ends, substantially asspecified.

2. The combination, with the stove-pipe section having its end beveledand slotted on opposite sides at d d back of the bevel, of the adjacentsection having opposite perforations.. e e, and the transverseconnecting-rod F and nut G, substantially as specified.

In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
